The 8th Session of the Meeting of the Parties (MOP8) to the African-Eurasian Migratory Waterbird Agreement (AEWA) will take place on 26-30 September 2022 in Budapest, Hungary.
Nest box mounting programme to start nationwide
At the Nagymaros Kittenberg House, Zoltán Kovács said the programme will be implemented throughout the country with the participation of state forestry entities, the Chamber of Hunters and national parks.
With the programme, they are seeking to draw attention to the more minute details of nature, including small birds which have ever less natural shelter at their disposal, he said, adding that they would like to reach out to local communities and to find the right places for the nest boxes and bird feeders with the involvement of young people.
Government Spokesperson Alexandra Szentkirályi said the organisers of the exhibition to be held next week are investing major resources in ensuring that the path leading to the event should have elements that address future generations and help to shape mentality.
She added that programmes such as this seek to draw attention to how precious nature that surrounds us is, how important it is to preserve it, and how much we can all do for this also at a local level.
“As a forum created for nature conservation and hunting, the “One with Nature” Expo achieved internationally significant results, and accordingly the work we have begun is worth continuing from a professional perspective, but also from a social, foreign policy and national image perspective alike”, Mr. Kovács emphasised in Riga.
